B. Making inferences
[Try this]
Statement 2:True
Explanation:In paragraph 4, the author writes: “It refers to the mismatch between what’s expected and what actually occurs. When it’s sunnier than expected, people tend to exhibit behavior associated with good moods, like risk-taking.” Therefore, we can infer that people’s expectations have a powerful influence on their behavior.
Statement 3:False
Explanation: In paragraph 7, the author writes: “In the end, if you feel like making a big decision on an unexpectedly sunny day, you should probably wait.” Therefore, we can infer that the advice is to be cautious and not to make significant decisions impulsively just because the weather is nice.
Statement 4:False
Explanation:In paragraph 6, the author writes: “Optimism bias can affect not only whether we gamble but also whether we buy cars or homes.” Therefore, we can infer that while the article provides examples of gambling and car purchases to illustrate the point, it does not state that research is limited to these areas.
ON SUMMARY

4. According to “optimism bias,” people tend to think that positive events are more likely to happen than negative ones.
5. If you feel like making a big decision on an unexpectedly sunny day, you should probably wait as that decision may not be good for you in the long run.
The draft:
Research shows that unexpectedly nice weather can cause people to take more risks such asgambling and impulse purchases. One explanation is “prediction error.” When it’s sunnier than expected, people tend to exhibit behavior associated with good moods, like risk-taking. Releases of dopamine, the “feel good” hormone, happen when something is more rewarding than expected. Another explanation is “optimism bias.” That is to say, people think that positive events are more likely to happen than negative ones. In the end, if you feel like making a big decision on an unexpectedly sunny day, you’re advised to wait because that decision may not be good for you in the long run.
